Aight, to those who were late, here’s the TLDR:

  • Quarterfinals theme is APOCALYPSE
  • The deadline is at the very end of 09/09/2025 EST
  • DOUBLE ELIMINATION ROUND, only the top 4 will pass onto the semifinals
  • The winner of the challenge shall win the steak along with the free ticket to the finals!
  • Waitlist is officially in business!

I’m also aware that school is starting soon if not already started by then, so the chance is that I’ll have to give out another extension

Aight, bois, so its been like 2 days (almost) since I posted the quarterfinals post, so by then, my expectations are that you already got a game idea thought down.

TELL ME OR DIE, how much have you gotten done
  • Still on the drawing board, darnit, why aren’t the ideas flowing in my dang head??? (boi)
  • I have successfully thought of an idea and started to produce lately (very good)
  • Err-- I got a ton of code down now since the last 2 days, I’m so goated (wow)

In my version, yeah, CodePerson and DangerKitty are swapped with Swirlix and CopySprite.

But let’s see what the community thinks, IMO these two were 6 and 7 and should’ve been swapped…

  • Cacti Chaos by CopySprite

Ok, I made a big decision now that the community has shared their thoughts of my perhaps controversial results.

So, just this one time, I’ll make a compromise; I won’t eliminate @danger_kitty instantly. However, what I plan on doing is adding an additional slot for @CopySprite to participate in, now there will be a total of 7 users competing in the ck5 quarterfinals.

Nothing more should change, though; it’ll still be the top 4 who will move onto the semifinals.

Yeahhh… I said in the review, just not my kind of gameplay!

I spent SO LONG trying to choose which of the games were better, your two games were SO CLOSE!! I finally decided to put yours above because it has just a bit more enjoyable/unique gameplay (rather than the standard fighting game) and it’s complete (rather than part of a larger series), but it was really hard to pick :laughing:
